Overview of the Geothermal Sources in Kyrgyzstan N. Degembaeva α , E. Baibagyshov σ & Ch. Kukanova ρ Abstract- At the present energy independence along with global warming for high mountain regions is quite significant issues. Impact of climate change on water resources, which accompanied by melting glaciers and snow cover, leads water shortage. About 94% generated energy in Kyrgyzstan produced from water resources. Shortage of water resources created for society in sustainable development of economy and challenge of severely ecological consequences. Therefore, one of the adaptation measures to the climate change is looking for alternative way with usage of renewable energy. For ensuring of energy safety of the population of Kyrgyzstan as a priority should be taking account usage of solar, biomass and geothermal energy. Aim of this work is study of qualitative composition of geothermal resources of Kyrgyzstan in case study of Issyk-Kul province. Geothermal resources are mainly concentrating in recreation zones of Issyk-Kul province and have a low- temperature characteristic. Geothermal energy from sources can be used as heating as hot-water supply. Result of this study provide information consumer about renewable energy for sustainable management of natural resources. Keywords: geothermal sources, issyk-kul province, renewable energy, sustainable development of region, ecological and economic assessment. I. I ntroduction n world practice, geothermal energy finds its wide application in heating premises, resorts, hospitals, greenhouses, in general, in economic activity. In agricultural production, which is the main activity of this region, the use of thermal water will provide tangible benefits.Heating livestock complexes, heating drinking water for livestock in winter, the use of wastewater in fish breeding ponds is no less promising areas of geothermal heat utilization. The use of complex geothermal source schemes in the cold season allows you to supply hot water from the well in the heating system of greenhouses.The waste water through the system forms a temperature difference of 25 ° C. Then water with a temperature of about 50 ° C is sent to livestock farms. After circulation of such scheme, the water temperature is 25-30 ° C and goes for tanks and ponds.

The economic value of these resources is significant. Not only in the Issyk-Kul region, but also in other areas of the Republic, the use of renewable energy sources is not yet widespread. The study of the literature, gives the background to the need to introduce this type of energy sources, as with global climate change, the large demand for natural resources and a sharp increase in population cannot provide the necessary conditions and products from natural resources in a timely manner. The purpose of this work is to study the qualitative composition of geothermal sources of Kyrgyzstan, on the example of the Issyk-Kul region. II. M aterials and M ethods a) Subject of the Study The Kyrgyz Republic is rich in natural resources, the Issyk-Kul region, located in the northeastern part of the Republic and is an administrative and special natural-climatic zone. In the north of the Issyk-Kul hollow is the Kungoi Ala-Too ridge, the southern border of the region is the Teskei Ala-Too ridge, which sharply separates it from the inner Tien Shan. The total length of the Issyk-Kul basin, including the slopes of the surrounding ridges, is more than 250 km with the greatest width of 100 km. The area of the region is 43.1 thousand square kilometers, which is 21.6% of the country's area [2]. The landscape of the Issyk-Kul hollow is quite complex and is represented by a complex of plains, foothills and mountains [3]. Number of residents 470.1 thousand people, number of inhabitants per 1 km 2 11 people (2017 at the beginning of the year). The administrative-territorial structure of the Issyk-Kul region includes five districts, according to favorable agro-climatic conditions, I 1 Year 2023 47 © 2023 Global Journals Global Journal of Science Frontier Research Volume XXIII Issue ersion I VI ( H )
